FCC to vote in favor of media consolidation

Fantastic. I was almost getting worried that we might have competition and too many news sources. Those ideas are so old fashioned and out of date. The Bush administration is loving this move, which should say enough about what this means to everyone outside of media conglomerates such as News Corp. This administration never saw a plan to destroy competition and diversity that they didn't like.

The only bright news here is that there are at least a few Republicans in the Senate who are joining a handful of Democrats who are vowing to overturn the FCC if they vote to allow consolidation. Whether it will be enough is hard to say, since most in the GOP are afraid of competition these days.
